NAME
     sge_request - Sun Grid  Engine  default  request  definition
     file format

DESCRIPTION
     <I>sge</I>_<I>request</I> reflects the  format  of  the  files  to  define
     default  request  profiles.  If  available,  default request
     files are read and processed during  job  submission  before
     any submit options embedded in the job script and before any
     options in the  <B><A HREF="../htmlman1/qsub.html?pathrev=V62u5_TAG">qsub(1)</A></B>  or  <B><A HREF="../htmlman1/qsh.html?pathrev=V62u5_TAG">qsh(1)</A></B>  command-line  are  con-
     sidered.  Thus, the command-line and embedded script options
     may overwrite the settings in the default request files (see
     <B><A HREF="../htmlman1/qsub.html?pathrev=V62u5_TAG">qsub(1)</A></B> or <B><A HREF="../htmlman1/qsh.html?pathrev=V62u5_TAG">qsh(1)</A></B> for details).

     There is a cluster global, a  user  private  and  a  working
     directory local default request definition file. The working
     directory local default request file has  the  highest  pre-
     cedence  and  is  followed  by the user private and then the
     cluster global default request file.

     Note, that the -<I>clear</I> option to <B><A HREF="../htmlman1/qsub.html?pathrev=V62u5_TAG">qsub(1)</A></B>  or  <B><A HREF="../htmlman1/qsh.html?pathrev=V62u5_TAG">qsh(1)</A></B>  can  be
     used  to  discard  any  previous  settings  at any time in a
     default request file, in the embedded script flags or  in  a
     <B><A HREF="../htmlman1/qsub.html?pathrev=V62u5_TAG">qsub(1)</A></B> or <B><A HREF="../htmlman1/qsh.html?pathrev=V62u5_TAG">qsh(1)</A></B> command-line option.

     The format of the default request definition files is:

     <B>o</B>  The default request files may contain an arbitrary number
        of  lines.   Blank lines and lines with a '#' sign in the
        first column are skipped.

     <B>o</B>  Each line not to  be  skipped  may  contain  any  <B><A HREF="../htmlman1/qsub.html?pathrev=V62u5_TAG">qsub(1)</A></B>
        option  as  described  in  the  Sun Grid Engine Reference
        Manual. More than one option per  line  is  allowed.  The
        batch  script  file  and  argument  options  to the batch
        script are not considered as <B><A HREF="../htmlman1/qsub.html?pathrev=V62u5_TAG">qsub(1)</A></B> options and thus are
        not allowed in a default request file.

EXAMPLES
     The following is a  simple  example  of  a  default  request
     definition file:

     =====================================================
     # Default Requests File

     # request group to be sun4 and a CPU-time of 5hr
     -l arch=sun4,s_cpu=5:0:0

     # don't restart the job in case of system crashes
     -r n
     =====================================================

     Having defined a default request definition file  like  this
     and submitting a job as follows:

     qsub test.sh

     would have precisely the same effect as if the job was  sub-
     mitted with:

     qsub -l arch=sun4,s_cpu=5:0:0 -r n test.sh

FILES
     &lt;<I>sge</I>_<I>root</I>&gt;/&lt;<I>cell</I>&gt;/<I>common</I>/<I>sge</I>_<I>request</I>
                   global defaults file
     $<I>HOME</I>/.<I>sge</I>_<I>request</I>   user private defaults file
     $<I>cwd</I>/.<I>sge</I>_<I>request</I>    cwd directory defaults file
